Yes, Polian's drafting late in his Colts tenure wasn't so great, no question. Not sure how much of that had to do with him passing off responsibilities to his son, but either way I'm sure it played a big role in the Polians being forced out.
He did draft well early while with the Colts, however. Most of they players most commonly associated with the Colts' glory days - Manning, Edge, Freeney, Mathis, Wayne, Sanders, Clark, Bethea - were drafted by Polian.
